Answer:

C. The founding fathers, is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The group of American Leaders who united the thirteen Colonies and led the War of Independence against Britain are known as Founding Fathers. They were philosophers, politicians, and writers. Historians consider John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and George Washington to be the founding fathers. This term is also used for the signer of the Declaration of Independence in 1776. But both are different, the framers is used for those 55 men who took part in drafting the constitution of the US. Here, Martin Luther King Jr. is referring to the founding fathers.
